Shepard’s War is an intimate, illustrated narrative of the First World War seen through the mainly unpublished work of E. H. Shepard, who served as a frontline officer from 1915 to the end of the war.
E. H. Shepard is an illustrator who depicted many scenes of the First World War. He also famously illustrated Winnie-the-Pooh and The Wind in the Willows
His early cartoons from this time are treasures, offering an
intimate view of the reality of war. It’s a perspective that
photography, historical record and even poetry can’t capture.

most vividly fascinating to join the growing bibliography of the
First World War.
